Project Summary
Yala is a Bitcoin-native asset protocol designed to bridge Bitcoin’s liquidity to multi-chain ecosystems via $YU, a USD-pegged stablecoin backed by Bitcoin (BTC). By addressing Bitcoin’s script functionality and scalability limitations, Yala transforms Bitcoin from a store of value into a robust DeFi infrastructure through a modular architecture and decentralized indexer network.

Core Objective: Unlock Bitcoin’s liquidity across multi-chain ecosystems through the $YU stablecoin and $YALA governance token, enabling decentralized finance (DeFi) and real-world asset (RWA) applications.

Key Features
1. $YU Stablecoin:
– Backed by BTC, enabling users to mint $YU for cross-chain DeFi and RWA investments.
– Allows users to earn yields without selling or transferring BTC ownership.
2. Operation Modes:
– Lite Mode: User-friendly for beginners, with one-click operations and automated loan-to-value (LTV) management to minimize liquidation risks.
– Pro Mode: Offers advanced users full control over $YU liquidity and yield strategies.
3.Cross-Chain Interoperability:
– Supports Bitcoin liquidity on non-EVM chains (e.g., Solana) via atomic swaps and modular design.
4. Yield and Stability:
– Enables participation in DeFi protocols (e.g., Kamino, Raydium) and RWA investments.
– Maintains protocol stability through stable pools and liquidation mechanisms.
5. NFT and Ecosystem Incentive:
– Genesis NFTs (10,000 total, Soul Bound, non-transferable) tie user identities to future ecosystem rewards and airdrops.

الهندسة المعمارية الفنية
– Modular Design: Comprises application, consensus, data availability, execution, and settlement layers for secure and efficient financial transactions.
– Partners: Collaborates with Nubit (Bitcoin-native data availability layer), Babylon (BTC staking protocol), and Tokentable (airdrop distribution) to enhance security and community engagement.
– Decentralized Indexers and Oracles: Facilitate efficient cross-chain operations and data processing.
